Why work for Browns?

Hear from some of our team on why they chose to work for Browns, and what they love most about their job.

Emmy Mills - General Manager, Browns Nottingham

Why did you want to work for Browns?

I wanted to work in a fast paced, dynamic environment and Browns was absolutely that! I love the multi-layered management that Browns offers which allows me the time to develop and train my management team. I feel Browns attracts some of the best people from the industry and I feel really lucky to be in a role that challenges me but also the people challenge me. Every day is so different and I love the variation of my job - it's really rewarding.

Tell us about your career journey…

I started with Ember Inns when I finished studying at Uni - I fell in love with hospitality and was working with a great team and area manager who saw something in me and helped me to develop my talents to become a district trainer. I went on to develop further and become a GM with Ember Inns and I worked really hard to turn around a business, develop my team and deliver an all green scorecard. From there I went on to work for Browns as a GM - I love this brand! We are so lucky, as we are such a small brand the community is really tight and it feels like you're working with one big family. You are given the trust and autonomy to grow and develop your business and your ideas are listened to by the brand team - I love that we can get involved in the development of our brand.

Diego Caballero - Head Chef, Browns Brighton

Why did you want to work for Browns?

When I first moved to this country I started my career with Browns as a Kitchen Porter. I loved the high standards and professionlism of Browns, this combined with my natural passion for food gave me an opportunity to go further and my Head Chef took me under his wing and spent time developing and training me. I developed under my Head Chef who was brilliant and I went on to become a Head Chef myself, I have now also been promoted to Accredited Head Chef which means I support all the Head Chefs and businesses in my area too. There is so much to learn in Browns and you are always given the opportunity to go further if you are prepared to work for it.
